McEwen, Weston. N ewiuarket D BLO‘UQE ONT. The church at Belvoir is a handâ€" some structure of the Gothic style, and built in the shape on a cross and dedicated to St. Mary. In my opin- ion the sarcophogi, monuments, busts, tablets, etc., are in a. better state of preservation than those in VVest- minster Abbey. The supposition is that the inhabitants of Bottesfnrd did not take any part in the trouhk some times of Charles I., consequently the church and belongings remained in- tact from the ravages that caused so much wanton destruction duuiug that pe'lliod. ‘ The monuments are mostly of Ital- ian alabaster. No less than four Dukes are buried here, the others having been removed to the. mauso- leum at Belvoir Castle; the De Roos family is also interred in this church. It may be interesting to notice the Royal Coat of Arms over the archway at the chancel entrance. Upon en- quiry I learned it is not to Show that this church has been patronized by Royalty, but on account of the Earls Rutland dating back to the first Earl, who was by his mother grandson of the Duke of York, brother to Edward IV. marrying into the family. One of this Duke’s sons married 3, Vernon of Haddon in Derb shire from whom the present Duke escends. Henry 2nd Earl of Rutland was a Knight of the Garter in Edward IV. time and is said to be one of the Commissioners who compiled the Common Prayer. Edward 3rd_ Earl and“ his lady_ are shown in alabaster effigies, uner a. handsome scroll pediment. In the front of one of the pillars supporting the column is their only daughter in the attitude of devotion. She was married at the age of twelve to Wm. Cicale, a, predecessor of the Earl of Exeter. A John 4th Earl and his lady and chil- dren are enclosed in tombs covered by a. marble monument. The family crest is a bull’s head, which is taken from the mother’s side of the house. Roger 5th Earl married a daughter of Sir Philip Sidney; their tomb is handsomely carved. Above the whole is their coat of arms and a. human skull on which is an hour glass. He died in 1612 and left no issue. Francis 6th Earl and his wife rest under a, lofty arch. The monu- ment was put up to the memory of his first wife. The Whole of the stone may he said to form three tiers, four black marble pillars support the first, and on the side two pillars; at the head is the figure of the daughter and at the foot two sons; the top shows the coat of arms. helmet and chapean surmounted by the peacock. George 7th Earl is represented by an orator in Roman costume. John 8th Earl =married a dim liter of Lord Montague; died 1679fipwit on; issue." This monu-,_ ment is very fine and well preserved, and on account of the Duke taking no part in the troublesome times of Cromwell, doubtless the tomb was leijt untouched. Near the vault door on the north. side of the chancel is a. slab brou ht from Belvoir Priory. It, is inscri ed to Robert; De Ross and conveys the. followinil in part: Here lieth the heart_0f _ qbert De Ross, Whose_ body was buried at Kirkhdm under Em marble tomb! and his heart at Crox-, The pulpit ia‘bjghl carved, and dates?! 1631: 9n the way.) 3 pf the nave is a.

The Grove, Old Dalbyi Leicestershire. The long-pending negotiations for the purchase of the controlling inter- est in the Metro olitan Railway by the Toronto Raifway Company are said to be at last completed, and an agreemth reached, although no official announcement is yet made. While President Mackenzie was out of the city yesterday, it is stated by those who are in a. position to know that such is the ease, and that the transfer Will soon be made. The ne- gotiations leading up to this deal have been going on for ,several years, and when it was thought that an agreement had been reached it was always declared that there was a hitch regarding the price. MISS E. E. GREEN’S LETTER. Metropolitan Purchase Across the Ocean. The Metropolitan will form an im- portant adjunct to the Toronto Rail- way in the capacity of a feeder run- ning through a rich farming section between the city limits and News market, a. distance of thirty miles. It It will nearly complete the contiol by Mr. Mackenzie of the ‘existing radial rallways touching Toronto. The ef- forts put forth by Mr. Mackenzie dur- ing the last session of the Legislature to secure the passing of the Metro- politan Railway bill lead most people to believe that he expected to secure control at an early date. and that when he did so he had some active plans for the promotion of its welfare. Whether this means ultimately the running of Metropolitan cars to the market over Toronto Railway tracks, : or by some other route, remains to be seen; but it is evident that acaess to the market for the Metro olitan cars will he one of Mr. Mac enzie’s first objects. it, is also robable that; further ex- tensions of t e Metropolitan will be carried out.
